Edit a destination


You can edit a destination in three different ways:

  • From one of the Plans, by clicking the pencil icon PMA-GDE-fr-modifier destination-01.png in the popup window of a stop point on the map. Select a stop point. When you click on this point, a popup window opens. The pencil iconPMA-GDE-fr-modifier destination-01.png
  • is located next to the name of the stop point.
  • From one of the Plans, by clicking the pencil iconPMA-GDE-fr-modifier destination-01.png
  • next to the destination name in the right-hand panel. Click the pencil iconPMA-GDE-fr-modifier destination-01.png
  • next to the destination you want to edit.
  • From the Destinations list, by clicking the pencil icon PMA-GDE-fr-modifier destination-02.png for the desired destination.

The destination sheet is made up of several sections. The first is the fixed part of the location (name, reference, address, etc.), the second section is the variable part, which is the action carried out there (Delivery, duration, quantity, time slots, etc.)

  1. Name (required):
    name of the destination.
  2. Street, Additional info, Postcode, City, Country (Required or Lat/long):
    enter the address of the destination. Geocoding is automatic. The address is positioned on the map. The additional address info is for details like "housing estate", "house at the end of the cul-de-sac", "business park".
    Note
    When creating a destination on Mapo, the app suggests the closest addresses to those entered by the user.
  3. Geocoding quality, Latitude, Longitude (required or address):
    If the geocoding is incorrect, the point can be moved directly on the map to the desired location.
  4. Phone number (optional):
    Phone number for direct contact with the destination.
  5. Comment (optional):
    Information needed for work on site, such as a door code, specific details about the location, etc.


“Visit” section

You need to fill in the following fields:

  • Reference (optional):
    unique identifier from a business software.
  • Visit duration: This is the time taken for the action during the visit (Delivery, collection, service, etc.). If not specified, the default value will be used.
  • Date: This is the planned date of the visit, which allows you to schedule only visits for a specific date when creating a route plan for a particular day.
  • Time slots: lets you specify the time windows during which the visit can start.
  • Labels: These are the labels assigned to this visit.
  • Quantities (optional):
    enter the quantity to be delivered (make sure this matches the vehicle capacity).
  • Empty vehicle (optional):
    indicate if this destination is an unloading point, i.e. if the load should be completely removed from the vehicle at this point. Fill vehicle (optional): indicate if this destination is a loading point, i.e. if the load should be completely loaded into the vehicle at this point.
  • Indication of the quantified deliverable unit
  • The “Add barcodes for this quantity” link
    PMA-GDE-fr-nouvelle destination-04.png expands when clicked. It allows you to record one or more barcodes for a quantified deliverable unit.
    Note:
    Barcodes are scanned and saved in the Mapo Driver mobile app.
  • Visit duration (optional):
    enter the time spent on the visit. This can be added to the time at the destination.

    Note:
    The visit duration is set in the global settings. If the Visit duration field is empty, the visit duration used will be the one from the global settings.
  • Time slots (optional):
    set the start and end time windows for the visit (these are used in optimisation calculations). Two time slots per visit can be set.
  • Priority (optional):
    assign a priority level to a visit from -4 (least important visit) to 4 (most important visit). This allows you to exclude the least urgent visits from your routes and only include secondary visits in an optimisation if time allows.
  • Labels (optional):
    enter one or more previously created labels (see the Create a label section). A label can be used to link to a vehicle skill (see vehicle configuration).
  • Priority (optional):
    assign a priority level to a visit from -4 (least important visit), 0 or 4 (most important visit). This allows you to exclude the least urgent visits from your routes and only include secondary visits in an optimisation if time allows.
